1. غزالٌ سبى عقلي شبا حرّ طرفه

    وما بلغ القلبُ المراد من الوصل

    A gazelle—the keen edge of his burning glance has captured my reason.

    And my heart has not attained the union it desires.

  2. يكلّفني حمل الصّدود وشرط من

    يُكلّفُ في الشّرع البلوغُ مع العقل

    He obliges me to bear rejection, though a prerequisite for anyone

    obligated under religious law is maturity together with reason.
